I turned forty last month, and I kind of liked it. Am I in the minority here? Last month, when I was in California, Kristen and I shot a few Mama Said-type videos, and one of them was about turning the big 4-0. (Kristen turns 40 this month.) What I love most about this video […]

Since I apparently can’t stay awake past 9:20pm lately (it’s 9:07pm as I write this, and hey, after last year’s insomnia extravaganza, I’m NOT complaining), I am skipping this week’s link-compiling, and hitting you with a little bit of this action. My children jamming out in a Trader Joe’s parking lot. They are slightly cray […]

I’m not sure if last night’s episode deserves its own video, but here ya go. (I was actually more intrigued by one of the audience members than the bachelorettes.) Seriously, you guys. This young lady is far too invested in next week’s preview of The Bachelor. WHAT WILL EVER BECOME OF JUAN PABLO’S LOVE SITUATION? […]

Kristen and I had mid-winter break last week, hence the lack of recap, but we’re back. And see those faces? Those are our WE CALLED IT faces. Juan Pablo, man. What else could we possibly have to say about him? Well, apparently, 20 minutes worth. (We did have four hours of material to work with, […]

Quickly, I want you all to know that I’m doing well. I didn’t mean to convey that I myself was hanging by a thread in last week’s post – I just love that post from Danielle LaPorte, and hoped it could give some of you the same boost that it gave me during a rough […]

Last night, as I was preparing dinner for the kids, I received this text from my mom. Way too much kissing on Bachelor. Have they all been like this and I’ve forgotten? Couldn’t have said it better myself.

You guys, I just have to laugh at the dichotomy of my online presence right now. On one hand, I’m in the midst of a self-help bender (thanks to my friend Monica for that term because it’s PERFECT) and dousing you with all sorts of spiritual fodder here and especially on my Facebook page. (Did […]

On this episode of Sarah Says, I talk about my tried-and-true skincare routine that I’ve used for years. The products are a 50/50 mix of drugstore and department store brands, and I’ve had a lot of luck with them over the years. The funny thing is that since I’ve radically changed my diet and lifestyle, […]

Okay, first things first, I wasn’t in a great mood today – Wita woke up with a fever, so I brought her with me to Kristen’s house to film this Bachelor recap. (You can actually hear the poor thing whining in the background a couple of times – we had to stop filming in the […]

Okay, here’s the deal. I STILL watch The Bachelor. After all these years. I should be ashamed of myself, but instead, I am being VULNERABLE and telling you, just like all the girls this year. (Apparently, the producers of the show have read Daring Greatly as well….wait, I know! Drink every time you hear the […]

We’re baaaaaaaack. YOU GUYS, what did you think of the Downton Abbey premiere? Kristen and I were a little bored out of out gourds. Hoping for a little zing zang flavor next week. We filmed these videos after watching the British series, which had the first episode split into two shows, hence the two videos.
